    Also, it's 'floury' spuds and not 'flowery' spuds.

    All you strange people who claim not to like them? What are you thinking?!

    I’ve long pondered on the humble potato.

    I’ve come to the conclusion that they are a drogher for butter and salt. And occasionally cream and scallions.

    First they came for the socialists...

    Had freshly dug spuds from the Garden on Saturday salt and a bit of butter, its got to be up with one the worlds tastiest foods and they are so easy to grow and no bother to cook no wonder people lived on potatoes.

    There's nothing worse than those soapy potatoes from Israel/Cyprus!

    You obviously haven't tried Lumpers yet. Blight resistant but utterly horrid spuds.

    I have taken to putting salt and vinegar on all my spuds. Floury, soapy, chippy , roasties etc . Once you start treating them like chips you will never stop.

    Warning

    Do not under any circumstances put vinegar into your mashed spuds mix, this is highly dangerous and should only be actioned by extremely experienced spud eaters.

    Anyone who doesn't like the mediterranean spuds are obviously part of some sort of Irish Culchie conspiracy. The type of mucksavage that only has curry with chips and the like. Probably Fianna Fail supporters or something like that. Possibly from Cork or somewhere similar. Closet Ironicists.

    'Soapy' spuds are only any good in a stew , to soak up the meat fat,
    like lamb in an Irishtew.

    Floury spuds are the freshest. Those watery things are awful

    Of course there are the in betweens too which are acceptable to this palate.

    Nothing gives me more joy than seeing Irish lads and ladies having THE talk: what's the one true rightful heir to the spud throne.

    It's true what they say about you on the mainland.
